GEPN students must meet the School of Nursing's Essential Qualifications of Candidates for
Undergraduate and Pre-Licensure GEPN Admission, Continuance, and Graduation in order to progress
satisfactorily. These essentials include academic performance, communication skills,
behavioral/emotional health, and professional conduct. Please review the
Essential Qualifications
of Candidates for Undergraduate and Pre-Licensure GEPN Admission, Continuance, and Graduation.
The GEPN subcommittee, under supervision of the BSN Coordinating Committee, monitors satisfactory
progress of all GEPN students. Satisfactory Progress during the pre-RN portion of the program is
defined as a 2.0 in all graded classes or "Credit" in non-graded classes AND meeting the criteria
of the essential qualifications. If the committee is concerned that a student is not making
satisfactory progress in academic areas of the program or is not meeting the essential qualifications,
the committee reviews the situation and may set up appropriate support systems and conditions for
the student for the remainder of the program. (see The Warning Card: Notification to Student of Unsatisfactory Progress). This support
may include regular tutoring, counseling, advising appointments, repeating courses and/or a reduced
program schedule. In some instances a leave of absence and/or dismissal from the program is required.
Students are encouraged to seek support through Academic Services, as well as assistance and support
from the student counselor free of charge.
Students must receive a 2.0 and/or "credit" in all nursing core courses and meet the essential
qualifications in order to complete the pre-licensure portion of the program. Active, unrestricted
licensure as an RN in Washington State is required for continuation to the MN or DNP portion of
the program.
